nixpkgs/nixos/lib/make-zfs-image.nix
Graham Christensen 076f6e2d94 nixos/make-zfs-image: init
This is a private interface for internal NixOS  use. It is similar
to `make-disk-image` except it is much more opinionated about what
kind of disk image it'll make.

Specifically, it will always create *two* disks:

1. a `boot` disk formatted with FAT in a hybrid GPT mode.
2. a `root` disk which is completely owned by a single zpool.

The partitioning and FAT decisions should make the resulting images
bootable under EFI or BIOS, with systemd-boot or grub.

The root disk's zpools options are highly customizable, including
fully customizable datasets and their options.

Because the boot disk and partition are highly opinionated, it is
expected that the `boot` disk will be mounted at `/boot`. It is
always labeled ESP even on BIOS boot systems.

In order for the datasets to be mounted properly, the `datasets`
passed in to `make-zfs-image` are turned in to NixOS configuration
stored at /etc/nixos/configuration.nix inside the VM.
NOTE: The function accepts a system configuration in the `config`
argument. The *caller* must manually configure the system
in `config` to have each specified `dataset` be represented
by a corresponding `fileSystems` entry.

One way to test the resulting images is with qemu:

```sh
boot=$(find ./result/ -name '*.boot.*');
root=$(find ./result/ -name '*.root.*');

echo '`Ctrl-a h` to get help on the monitor';
echo '`Ctrl-a x` to exit';

qemu-kvm \
    -nographic \
    -cpu max \
    -m 16G \
    -drive file=$boot,snapshot=on,index=0,media=disk \
    -drive file=$root,snapshot=on,index=1,media=disk \
    -boot c \
    -net user \
    -net nic \
    -msg timestamp=on
```

# Note: This is a private API, internal to NixOS. Its interface is subject
# to change without notice.
#
# The result of this builder is two disk images:
#
# * `boot` - a small disk formatted with FAT to be used for /boot. FAT is
# chosen to support EFI.
# * `root` - a larger disk with a zpool taking the entire disk.
#
# This two-disk approach is taken to satisfy ZFS's requirements for
# autoexpand.
#
# # Why doesn't autoexpand work with ZFS in a partition?
#
# When ZFS owns the whole disk doesnt really use a partition: it has
# a marker partition at the start and a marker partition at the end of
# the disk.
#
# If ZFS is constrained to a partition, ZFS leaves expanding the partition
# up to the user. Obviously, the user may not choose to do so.
#
# Once the user expands the partition, calling zpool online -e expands the
# vdev to use the whole partition. It doesnt happen automatically
# presumably because zed doesnt get an event saying its partition grew,
# whereas it can and does get an event saying the whole disk it is on is
# now larger.
